How do environmental and behavioral factors impact ultraviolet radiation effects on health: the RISC-UV Project
Résumé
This presentation focuses on the first results of the UV experimental measurements performed between September
8th and October 8th 2008 in Palaiseau, France (48.7˚N; 2.2˚E; 170m – Haeffelin et al., 2005). A second campaign
is foreseen for the spring of 2009. The purpose of these campaigns is to obtain, analyze and quantitatively link the
UV radiation data obtained at various spatial scales (satellite, ground-based and spot measurements) by a variety of
measuring systems. Moreover a set of atmospheric parameters (total ozone column, the vertical profile and optical
thickness of aerosols, cloud cover and solar albedo) related to UV radiation is also collected
